Dear Uncle Horton,

We just want to let you know what a great weekend we had with you while we were in Boise. You are a fantastic guide and it was so nice of you to have taken us out for a tour of the city.  The sights were beautiful and our two girls loved the Discovery Centre very much. They are still talking about it.

We are not sure when we’ll meet again, but we hope it won’t be too long. Please let us know of any plans you might have to visit New York. We would love you to visit us and we hope to have the pleasure of taking you around New York City.

Thanks again for a truly great weekend.

Much love,

Dick and Kate
